Taozheng was toasting with his friends. One of them was Lang Bu, Lang Bushin's father, and the other was Wang Dao, an old friend who had immigrated to the United States and whom he hadn't seen for 20 or 30 years.

"I never thought that the three of us could get together again. Lao Wang, you went to the United States for decades and never replied to my letters after you left." Taoci said.

"I also had a secret back then, but my teacher valued me and took me to the United States to teach. Later, I married my teacher's daughter in the United States and stayed there. I have never found a chance to come back and get together with you guys." Wang Dao said.

"We had such a good relationship when we were little, but now we are old men and our children are old enough to get married," said Lang Bu.

"I came back this time to worry about my children at home. I saw the news on the Internet some time ago and learned that your son, Lao Tao, is getting married. Congratulations." Wang Dao said.

"Hey, you are really well-informed. If you stay in China long enough this time, come and have a drink if you don't mind my son's gay wedding." Taoci said with a smile.

"I don't despise them, I don't despise them. There is no such thing as despise. Children have their own paths to follow. We old antiques have no right to point out whether they are right or wrong. We just need to support them behind their backs." Wang Dao said.

"That's true. How are your children? Are they married? Is it a son or a daughter? I remember when we were young, we joked about arranging a marriage for our children in the future." Taoci said.

"It's a daughter, a late-born child. She is twenty-one years old this year. She has returned to China with her brother for a while. She set up some small company in this city and made a mess of it. She refused to go back to the United States even when we asked her to." Wang Dao said.

"Wait, what did you two just talk about child marriage? Why are the three of us playing together, but you don't bring my child to participate in the child marriage? Are you isolating me?" Lang Bu said.

Taoci and Wang Dao both looked at Langbu's Zhuangzhuangma hairstyle and fell into deep thought.

"They were just jokes I made when I was a kid. They don't count. By the way, old man, do you have a son or a daughter? Are they married?" Wang Dao changed the subject.

"Both are sons. The older one is not in a hurry to get married. He will go back to Germany to study for a doctorate next year. The younger one is not married yet, but he already has a partner. I guess it won't be long before he gets married."

"You may have met his girlfriend, Lao Tao, at the banquet. She is Gu Chengxiu, the younger sister of Gu Dongnan, the president of Gu Corporation." Lang Bu said with a smile.

"Oh, it's that girl. I've seen her. She was so pretty. She got along well with my Xiaozhi at that time. I thought she had a chance to become my daughter-in-law, but in the end, your son took advantage of her." Taoci said.

"That's right. My son actually managed to marry such a pretty girl. It really is a blessing for our Lang family." Lang Bu laughed.

Wang Dao, who had been silent on the side, spoke quietly.

"Gu Chengxiu is my daughter." Wang Dao said.

Taoci and Langbu's smiles froze when they heard this. They were stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at Wang Dao.

"Isn't your surname Wang?" Lang Bu asked.

"I am marrying into the family, and the child takes my mother's surname, which is Gu," said Wang Dao.

Ceramics were the first to break the eerie atmosphere.

"This is such a coincidence! Everyone is happy. I didn't expect that your two children would fall in love with each other. Now you're in-laws." Taoci said.

Wang Dao glanced at Langbu's hairstyle sadly and sighed.

"Let's find time to invite the two children over for dinner tomorrow," Wang Dao said.

Lang Bushin received a call from his father, and had no choice but to cancel the manual transmission car he had agreed to with Gu Dongnan, and went to the dinner party feeling tired.

When I got there, I found that there was another acquaintance there, Gu Chengxiu.

Gu Chengxiu was obviously also confused.

The two of them sat together inexplicably, with you two having questions.

"You are Cheng Xiu, right? I am your Uncle Lang. We talked on the phone last time." Lang Bu said.

"Hello Uncle Lang, it's an honor to meet you." Gu Chengxiu said politely.

"Hey, hey, hey, this child looks well-behaved. She is worthy of being the daughter taught by you, Wang Dao." Lang Bu said.

At this time, Wang Dao was already in great sorrow.

Wang Dao had held out a glimmer of hope before seeing Lang Bushin, but after seeing Lang Bushin's copy-and-pasted hairstyle, he almost closed his eyes in peace.

But what can you do if your child likes the one he likes? You can only support him.

"Your father and I were good brothers when we were young. I just found out you are his daughter when we met this time. If this isn't fate, what is it?"

"I called you two here this time because I want to discuss your affairs while Lao Wang is staying in the country." Lang Bu said.

"What's going on between us?" Gu Chengxiu asked puzzledly.

"About your engagement." Wang Dao said.

Lang Bushin immediately realized that it was because of the last phone call he made that he had said Gu Chengxiu was his girlfriend that things went wrong.

It just so happened that I had discussed this with Gu Dongnan and confessed it to my friends a few days ago.

I had originally planned to find time to hint to my family, but I didn't expect that given the current situation, I would have to make it clear.

"I am definitely confident in the character of the child taught by Lao Lang. Since you have chosen him, I won't say much."

"Let's take advantage of your grandfather and I returning home to finalize your engagement," Wang Dao said.

Lang Bushin suddenly stood up.

"Dad, I have something to tell you. Actually, I..."

Just as Lang Bushin mustered up the courage to speak, Gu Chengxiu suddenly stood up in a panic and grabbed Lang Bushin's arm.

"Actually, we were planning to meet with the parents of both sides to discuss this matter. We didn't expect that you would meet first by such a coincidence. This is really too much of a coincidence, hahaha." Gu Chengxiu said evasively.

Lang Bushin was stunned when he heard this and wanted to pull his arm out of Gu Chengxiu's arms, but Gu Chengxiu held him tightly with gritted teeth.

"No, Gu Chengxiu, what are you talking about? We..."

Lang Bushin was interrupted again.

"We didn't make this decision on a whim. We made it after careful consideration. We are very happy to have your support."

"Look how excited my little Xin is. He's even stuttering and talking incoherently. Haha." Gu Chengxiu said in a natural manner.

Lang Bushin was shocked and thought Gu Chengxiu was out of his mind.

However, Gu Chengxiu did not give Lang Bushin any chance to act up again and pulled Lang Bushin away.

"I'm going to the bathroom to touch up my makeup. Xiao Xin, come with me. Dad and uncle, eat and drink well. We'll be back soon."

As Gu Chengxiu said this, he forcibly dragged Lang Bushin out of the door. After turning a corner, Gu Chengxiu let go of Lang Bushin, then put his hands on his waist and panted.

"Gu Chengxiu, are you sick? What nonsense did you just say in front of your dad and my dad?"

"Could it be that you have taken a fancy to me and want to take this opportunity to get me?" Lang Bushin said in horror.
